Maybe it's unwise to advertise your competitors but we believe
competition is good and we have the best support reading and
write Excel workbooks currently available. This however does not
purport to be a complete list.

This library outputs a simple CSV file, in which cells can
contain numbers or text. You could output a CSV file without its
help, but it gives a little more readability/structure to the code, and
could be extended to handle more complexity. When
you invoke one of these JSP pages from your browser, you open up an Excel
spreadsheet. There's no formatting, worksheets, or anything fancy like that.
So it's not strictly a competitor but it does the job.

Esta biblioteca ayuda a crear archivos en el formato de CSV, en la cual se permiten numeros y textos. Puede crear achivos de CSV sin esta ayuda, pero la bibioteca da estructura y leabilidad a su codigo y lo puede extender si necesita manejar casos mas complejos. Cuando un browser encuentra uno de estos páginas de JSP, abre una instancia de Excel automaticamente. No hay formatting, hojas de balance distintas, etc. O sea que, estrictamente, no es un competidor pero en algunos casos es todo lo que se necesita.
